Ojibwe Forests Rally

The Ojibwe Forests Rally is one of the longest stage rally events in the US. The rally, situated in the 10,000 Lakes region of Minnesota, is a competitor favorite for its smooth, quick, and free flowing stage roads. Ojibwe is a fast rally, with competitors spending much of their time in fifth or sixth gear. When the high speeds break the rally route gets complicated. Several times during the event, the racing surface transitions onto ATV access roads barely wider than a car. These roads also feature a departure from the smooth racing surface, forcing competitors over large rocks and through deep ruts. 

Friday will see a full day of forest stages, with an end of day Parc Expose and Super Special at the Soo Pass Ranch.  Saturday will feature more signature forest stages, with the return of the Sanford Steet Stage as the finale of the day.  Service both days will once again be hosted at Pioneer Farms.
